calculate the odds of a german lottery
The attached file contains in sheet "analysis", N6 the value
92,520,104,463,809,100 (origin in [1])
However there are people who claim in [2] a number of 92,520,104,463,809,120
(diff is 20).
Rounding errors in column D or E might be reason - but that would mean, that MS
Excel under a different system would suffer exactly from the same issue ...
Any chance to clarify it ?
